So I know you all love a good teacher thread, but this is not intended to be a teacher bashing thread. Today, my first grader comes home and tells me that Mickey is not real and there is a man or woman in the costume. One of her teachers told the class about this in the context of a lesson. I was upset, well disappointed really ,as we were hoping the magic would still be alive for 1 more trip. DH is quite upset and he wanted to contact the principal. I talked him out of that and convinced him that if he really wants to bring up the subject with the teacher, he should contact her directly. We are wondering how would you feel in this situation. Is it something that you would contact the teacher about or leave alone? Part of me wants to let it go because it's not a big deal in the grand scheme, however I know this revelation will lead to questioning of things like Santa, etc. She is our oldest, so this little milestone is new to us.
